Design Solution Overview

This house is a manifestation of nature in architecture. Each of its four basic elements – water, fire, earth and air – has its place here and together they create a harmonious home where one feels connected to the world around them.

💧 Water – fluidity and tranquility

  • The central element in the bathroom: a freestanding bathtub facing the panoramic window overlooking the garden.
  • An indoor fountain in the vestibule, which welcomes the inhabitants with the gentle sound of drops.
  • A special rain-effect shower that provides a relaxing ritual after a busy day.

🔥 Fire – the warmth of home

  • A dominant fireplace in the living room – large-scale, minimalist, with an open hearth. The fire here functions not only as a source of heat, but also as the heart of family life.
  • Flame-inspired lighting elements – ambient lighting that evokes an atmosphere of calm, subdued glow.

🌿 Earth – stability and authenticity

  • Solid wooden beams and stone as the main building materials.
  • Handmade ceramic elements in the bathroom and kitchen that give the space a unique signature.
  • Green walls and vertical gardens that bring a piece of nature directly into the interior.

💨 Air – openness and lightness

  • Large-format French windows that connect the interior to the garden and let the house breathe.
  • Minimalist railings and open galleries upstairs that promote visual lightness.
  • Connecting the floors with an internal balcony, allowing for easier communication between family members while adding playfulness to the house.
